The purpose of royal jelly

The main purpose of royal jelly in the bee family is to make selected bee larvae capable of procreation. And not just capable but incredibly prolific (2000 eggs per day).

Justification

Royal jelly (royal jelly) – a complex mixture of nutrients, which has many beneficial properties. The action is mainly due to a decrease of cholesterol level in blood and improving of the immune system. This so-called food of “bee kingdom”. The preferred food of the bee queen is a substance that turns an ordinary bee into a queen bee. Worker bees secrete milk substance (jelly), which is a mixture of chemicals from glands of bees and processed pollen and honey (nectar). Royal jelly is placed in a large cell prepared for the queen bee .

Worker bees get royal jelly only on the first day of their lives, then they eat only pollen and honey (nectar). As a result, the worker bees – are infertile.Unlike the queen bee, which can produce over 2,000 eggs per day and more, which are several times more than the mass of the queen.

Range of chemical and biological properties of royal jelly is very wide. One of the proteins found in royal jelly, gamma globulin, is important, as it has the security function of the body (antitoxic, anti-viral and anti-bacterial). Playing an important role vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) is necessary for the synthesis and metabolism of proteins, fats, carbohydrates and several hormones. Pantothenic acid also helps the body to absorb vitamin C and to strengthen the immune system. Royal Jelly – is one of the highest forms of pantothenic acid in nature. Royal jelly contains all essential amino acids and nine nonessential. It also possesses antibiotic properties. Note, however, that the structure of royal jelly and its amazing properties are still not well understood.

A bit of history:

Royal jelly has many names – Royal Jelly, the food of kings, quuen milk. The mystery of certain names is extremely interesting. For example “royal jelly” has two root causes:

1. In ancient times, this food was available only to the royal family. And because of the special difficulties of obtaining, only wealthy nobles, members of royal families and the kings themselves could use royal jelly.

2. This substance is intended for feeding the queen bee – hence the word “royal”. The word “jelly” is derived from the form of the substance.

With a range of nutrients mentioned above – royal jelly can effectively influence the likelihood of conception.

The study showed that the the diet with royal jelly improved ovulation and increased pregnancy rate (the probability of conception).

One of the important effects of royal jelly – the protection of the liver. It is able to protect cells from damage by certain toxic substances. Royal Jelly is prescribed for cervical erosion, inflammation of female genitals, in violation of local immunity, the development of fungal infections of the vaginal mucosa, in addition to conventional treatment modalities.

In the experiment, royal jelly was stored for more than 7 years at -20 C (-4 F) with no worsening of nutritional properties [Dietz, Haydak (1970)]. It was confirmed also that the optimum dose of the royal jelly – 300 milligrams per day for adults.
